Steve Eisman, the hedge fund manager known for his early bets against the subprime mortgage market, has issued a stark warning that a significant correction in Nvidia could precipitate a broader collapse in equity markets.
The former Greenlight Capital executive argues that the chipmaker's valuation is increasingly detached from fundamentals, driven by speculative momentum rather than sustainable earnings growth.
The Australian Financial Review reported that Eisman believes the current market structure is fragile, with Nvidia acting as a critical pillar supporting broader tech valuations.
Eisman's comments come as Nvidia lost its position as the world's most valuable company, overtaken by Apple following a recent shift in market capitalization.
